MICRONEEDLING (COLLAGEN INDUCTION THERAPY)

What Is Microneedling?

Microneedling, or percutaneous collagen induction therapy, is a minimally invasive dermatological procedure that utilizes a sterile device containing fine, medical-grade needles to create controlled micro-injuries in the skin’s surface. These microchannels trigger the body's wound-healing cascade, resulting in increased neocollagenesis and elastin production—key components in youthful, resilient skin.

At Re’Nue Wellness Bar, we utilize a professional-grade microneedling pen that delivers consistent depth and precision, ensuring safe and effective results tailored to each client's skin condition and goals.

CLINICAL BENEFITS

  • Microneedling triggers a 3-phase healing process that strengthens and rejuvenates your skin:

    • Inflammation Phase (0–48 hrs): Micro-injuries trigger platelet release and growth factors to begin repair.

    • Proliferation Phase (Days 2–14): Fibroblasts create new collagen (type III), elastin, and blood vessels.

    • Remodeling Phase (Weeks 2–12+): Collagen type III is replaced with stronger type I, smoothing scars and tightening skin.

    Key Benefits:

    • Up to 400% boost in collagen & elastin

    • Smoother texture, reduced scars, firmer skin

    • Enhanced skin thickness and resilience over time

    Optional add-ons like PRP or exosomes at Re’Nue Wellness Bar accelerate and enhance these results.

  • Microneedling enhances your skin’s natural exfoliation cycle for a clearer, more even complexion:

    • Stimulates keratinocyte activity to speed up skin cell renewal

    • Removes damaged surface cells, reducing dullness and discoloration

    • Promotes even pigment distribution, helping fade sun spots and melasma

    • Improves skin barrier function, reducing dryness and sensitivity

    • Leads to brighter, smoother skin with a more refined tone and texture

    This accelerated turnover, combined with collagen remodeling, delivers lasting rejuvenation from the inside out.

  • Microneedling effectively improves the appearance of indented (atrophic) acne scars by triggering deep tissue remodeling:

    • Stimulates fibroblast activity to fill in pitted scars with new collagen and elastin

    • Breaks down scar tissue adhesions, smoothing uneven texture

    • Increases dermal volume, lifting depressed scar areas

    • Most effective for rolling and boxcar scars; may improve some icepick scars over time

    • Visible improvement after 3–6 sessions, especially when combined with PRP or growth factors

    This is one of the most clinically validated uses of microneedling, with minimal downtime and high patient satisfaction.

  • Microneedling helps reduce the appearance of enlarged pores by improving skin structure and function:

    • Stimulates collagen around pores, making them appear tighter and less visible

    • Thickens the epidermis, which naturally reduces pore depth

    • Regulates sebum production, especially in oily or acne-prone skin

    • Enhances overall skin smoothness and tone

    • Best results seen after a series of treatments, with continued improvement over time

    The result: a refined, airbrushed look—without filters.

  • Forehead

  • Lower Face

  • Scaring

FAQs

  • The number of microneedling sessions required varies based on individual skin conditions and desired results. Typically, a series of multiple treatments spaced a few weeks apart is recommended for optimal results. During your consultation, our experienced practitioners will assess your skin and develop a personalized treatment plan.

  • Microneedling is generally well-tolerated. While the procedure involves some discomfort, the application of a topical numbing cream significantly reduces any pain. Most clients report only mild sensations during the treatment.

  • Microneedling involves minimal downtime. Post-treatment redness and swelling typically subside within a few days. You can resume your normal activities immediately, but it’s crucial to avoid sun exposure until your skin has fully healed.

  • Microneedling stimulates the production of collagen and elastin, resulting in long-lasting improvements to the skin’s texture and appearance. With proper skin care and maintenance, the results can be sustained over time.

  • Microneedling is a safe and minimally invasive procedure with a well-established safety profile. Common side effects include temporary redness, swelling, and mild discomfort in the treated area. These effects are typically mild and resolve on their own.

  • Before your microneedling appointment, it’s essential to inform your medical provider about any medications, supplements, or skin conditions you have. Avoid using any harsh skincare products or treatments before the procedure. During your consultation, our practitioners will provide specific pre-treatment instructions to ensure the best results.
